Goldilocks
We had to eat at Goldilocks and Tita Pye was joining us. so we ordered a lot of food – Sinigang, Barbeque Pork, Pancit, Garlic Fried Rice, Crispy Pata, Beef Kare-Kare, Crispy Pusit, Fresh Lumpia, Halo-Halo, and Leche Flan. I ate a bit of everything of course. My favorite was the Crispy Pata thanks to

Netflix Bites
We went for some late night bites. I remember seeing the signs about this opening when we were here in January. I was morbidly curious. This was directly adjacent to the slots where my parents like to play. The menu is themed around various Netflix shows. The puns/play on words for the menu items is

Din Tai Fung
We ate here last time we were here with my parents in January and wanted to come back again, this time with Trisha (Ginny was meeting up with her friends and doesn’t like dim sum anyway). We started with a couple of the salads – Seaweed & Beancurd Salad and the Cucumber Salad. I like

TRÀ Viet Coffee & Tea
Andrea was looking for some coffee and this place looked interesting since it wasn’t the usual chain store coffee. I had a Matcha Latte with oat milk. It’s very nice the way they package it into essentially a clear plastic can with an aluminum top complete with pop top. Andrea had a Viet Hot Coffee

Bazaar Mar by José Andrés
This was our first meal together which I booked early evening the day we all arrived here in Vegas. The restaurant is located in a bougie shopping mall (we did see Lisa Vanderpump and her husband walking their perfectly groomed Pomeranian around the mall) adjacent to the Aria Hotel.

United Club lounge – DEN Gate B32
I had a fairly short connection so was glad I had about 20 minutes in the United lounge at Denver not too far from my gate. There are two floors for the lounge here and although it was fairly busy, it did not feel crowded at all. Salad was standard (i.e. meh), but the warm

Coolinary and the Parched Pig
I wanted to spend a little more time with Trisha before she dropped me off at my hotel for my conference. I looked for some places for dinner on Eater and on the Michelin guide and we both thought Coolinary looked good. They didn’t have a reservation available indoors on Resy, so I called them

Rodizio Grill
This was our (my sisters, my parents, and me of course) chance to have dinner altogether. We went to the Brazilian churrascaria a short drive from Naples. Salad bar was of course quite extensive. The meat was definitely better than the last time I went to a churrascaria (Fogo de Chao in SF during RSA
